That will pass my authentication through won't it? My existing setup has
squid knowing my username and password and hence I never have to type it
in. That allows programs to have no need to know about authenticated
proxies (and I don't have to type my password in all the time).

I was using login=username:password, but this seems to not work with
digest auth.

Any suggestions.

Thanks
